Local Booksellers Know Best (Part Three)

Stone Town by Margaret Hickey

December 29, 2022 by thegirlwhogotoverit Leave a Comment

This is a rare fail from the local bookseller!  Recommended by the same bookseller who sold me These Hollow Vows, this was described as "My boss who loves Crime Fiction said this was really good." It is apparently the second mystery featuring the detective protagonist, but I honestly don't care … [Read more]

I adored this book, but also wanted to throw it at the wall

Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid

December 29, 2022 by thegirlwhogotoverit Leave a Comment

How is it possible for me to have loved and hated this so, so much?  I'm utterly satisfied by the resolution, but at the same time, I want to throw it at the sliding glass door in the dining room. I've got a list of things that have never happened in tennis - the Aus open at Christmas?  "The game … [Read more]

“Declan had put his identity crises on hold multiple times for the greater good. Matthew had only been asked to do it once.”

Mister Impossible by Maggie Stiefvater

December 29, 2022 by Malin 1 Comment

This is NOT the place to start if you're not caught up. Begin either with the start of this trilogy, Call Down the Hawk, or with the start of the previous series (in which Ronan is an essential character), The Raven Boys. This book kicks off a little while after the rather dramatic cliffhanger … [Read more]

Something of a departure

My Darling Daughter by JP Delaney

December 29, 2022 by thegirlwhogotoverit Leave a Comment

This author also wrote The Girl Before, but has since refined his preoccupations and writing to the point where I'd stop describing his work as psychological thrillers altogether. This is Sky's story, and though she is something of an unreliable narrator, this never comes as the sort of cheap … [Read more]

A late-night romance adventure in Vegas

Partners in Crime by Alisha Rai

December 29, 2022 by teresaelectro 2 Comments

I was lucky to read an ARC of Alisha Rai's Partners in Crime. My friend Sarah also demanded I read it. She wanted someone to gush about it with before the release. After I read Emmalita's rave review, I simply had to read it ASAP. It was a tough ask because I have a TBR mountain of books in my … [Read more]

Sweetest Book I’ve Read This Year

Date Me, Bryson Keller by Kevin Van Whye

December 29, 2022 by thegirlwhogotoverit Leave a Comment

I don't TikTok, so I am pretty sure that this hit my radar via Pajiba, and I am so glad it did.  It's a top ten read of the year. Bryson agrees to a dare whereby he dates the first person to ask him out each Monday, until the end of that week.  The wording is nebulous - doesn't specify a gender - … [Read more]
